Chapter 1637: Sowing Dissention

When enemies meet, their eyes are ablaze with hatred.

Zhou Daoxin was the first to react, "Chen Zhufeng! You bastard! Why are you here?!"

"I am today's leading man. Of course I have to show up!" Chen Xiaobei shrugged, strolled to the front row and sat down with his legs crossed and his eyes sweeping across the crowd languidly.

"You are the leading man? You lie like a cheap rug... and how dare you sit in the front row! That's reserved for the guests of honor! What insolence! How delinquent! How wildly arrogant!"

It was not just the five Anti-Bei Alliance leaders who were unhappy as the other six Earth Gods were also visibly annoyed.

After all, the people present there were old timers of Earth's old Jianghu, whose cultivation were of the highest level in the world.

Even they did not have the audacity of this young man who was in his twenties of occupying the front row seats.

Chen Xiaobei might as well have given them a slap in the face.

As the minority who occupied the apex of Earth's food chain, they could not possibly tolerate such provocative behavior.

"Faction leader Zhou, you know this rug rat?" Emei faction's Jing Yuan Shitai asked, his tone hostile.

Zhou Daoxian's raised his eybrows, "This person's name is Chen Zhufeng. He is the faction leader of Dragon City's Bei Xuan. He and I are sworn enemies!"

"So, he belongs to neither the Northern Wilderness Temple nor the South Town Star Temple?" Wudang's (faction) Zhang Yufeng asked, while narrowing his eyes.

Xu Shiqiu quickly answred, "Of course not! He's also from Earth's Jianghu like us!"

"He must be very powerful then?" Faction leader Yang of Taiji (faction) asked.

Ding Xiadong hissed, "Hmph! He's nothing but a weakling! Every one of us here is stronger than he is!"

"If he doesn't belong to the Temple or the Star Temple, and is weak in his cultivation, how dare he sit on the front row?" asked Calderon, the demigod that the Rothschild Family served in a frosty voice.

"He's like that! Conceited and cocky! He thinks he's better than everyone else! He made it a point to sit in front to show that he has no respect for us!" Shuldean and Betadalf added fuel to the flame.

Suddenly, all six of the Earth Gods were even more enraged.

Jing Yuan Shitai called out angrily, "Hey, you stupid kid! You are nothing, so don't act all high and mighty in front of us! You have three seconds to get off that seat or prepare to die!"

Ding!

[Cultivation: Early phase of God-Ascension cultivation; Lifespan: 1,009 years; Health: 500,000; Combat power: 500,000]

This nun's cultivation was very powerful, much higher than Chen Xiaobei's.

But Chen Xiaobei shot back a look of indifference, and said, "Shitai, I advise you to calm down. The devil lies in impulsiveness. It's really not good to shed blood on such a happy occasion!"

"Do you want to die?" Jingyuan Shitai shouted, as she drew the saber on her waist, and pointed it at Chen Xiaobei.

"Shitai, you can't kill me. So, you better save your energy!" Chen Xiaobei maintained that look of cool nonchalance, not hiding, not sidestepping, and not even defending. He went back to minding his own business, picking up a teapot and pouring himself a cup of tea.

"You bastard! How dare you disregard me! How can I walk in Jianghu again if I don't kill you today?!"

Jing Yuan Shitai was practically foaming at the mouth, swinging the saber at Chen Xiaobei.

The other Earth Gods laughed at Chen Xiaobei's expense. "The ignorant are fearless! You haven't even learnt how to walk yet, and yet you dare challenge Jing Yuan Shitai! You have such a bloated opinion of your own abilities!"

The five people of the Anti-Bei Alliance looked pleased with themselves.

They had all witnessed what Chen Xiaobei could do in Emperor Qin's mausoleum. But they deliberately made Chen Xiaobei look weak to sow dissention and incite animosity between Chen Xiaobei and the other six Earth Gods.

The more people who were in conflict with Chen Xiaobei, the higher the number of people joining the Anti-Bei Alliance.

Zing!

Jing Yuan Shitai was in a lather, her sword qi swinging down like a rainbow towards Chen Xiaobei's head.

This strike wielded 300,000 or more combat power.

Jing Yuan Shitai believed that 300,000 combat power was more than enough to kill this young'un in his twenties a hundred times over.

Zing!

But! Just as the sword qi was about to split Chen Xiaobei into half, a black shadow suddenly charged in from outside!

The black shadow had just swept past the door, but the energy it released was about 500,000 combat power!

That energy was much stronger than the one Jing Yuan Shitai used.

Zing!

The black shadow swooped in and parried Jing Yuan Shitai's saber before it could reach Chen Xiaobei.

"Ooof..." Because the energy was so powerful, Jing Yuan Shitai was pushed a few steps backwards, a ribbon of blood dripping down the corner of her lips. She was wounded by the black shadow!

"Who is it?!"

Everyone's eyes turned towards Chen Xiaobei.

A stalwart man had appeared next to him. He was holding a black halberd and his aura was similar to an ancient general during the old times.

He was the one who had wounded Jing Yuan Shitai.

"Bro Yu, you're here!" Chen Xiaobei smiled as he poured another cup of tea.

That's right! This person was none other than Xiangyu and his Heavenly Halberd!

After receiving Xu Fu's strength in the mausoleum, Xiangyu was able to break through to the early phase of God-Ascension cultivation with 500,000 combat power!

"No wonder you're so arrogant - You have a helper!" Jing Yuan Shitai mocked bitterly. Even though she was injured, she still wanted to continue her attack.

Being injured was nothing; losing face, however, was bad. How could Jianghu's best admit defeat? How would others see her?

"Jing Yuan Shitai, please calm down!" Zhang Yufeng stood up and said, "You're already injured. Take a rest. We will help you!"

Zhang Yufeng stepped forward.

Yang Yiqian of Taiji faction and the Rothschild Family's Calderon stood up.

The Rothschild Family's Calderon appeared uncertain. He neither stood up nor spoke on behalf of Chen Xiaobei.

Chen Xiaobei and the Rothschilds shared a very close relationship. It was better for Calderon not to fight Chen Xiaobei.

However, Calderon did not think that Chen Xiaobei could win, so he calculated that it was not in his advantage to defend Chen Xiaobei and offend the other six Earth Gods.

"You little shit! Do you think that you're the only one with backup? I have backup too!" Jing Yuan Shitai chuckled contentedly. "With the three of them fighting against you, you will die today!"

Zhang Yufeng, Yang Yiqian, and Calderon channeled their Ethereal Force in concert.

Chen Xiaobei looked at their combat power - all of them wielded 500,000. Though not high, with three of them working together, they could kill Xiangyu without a problem.

But as the three of them were ready to attack, Chen Xiaobei and Xiangyu settled down in their chairs and began to drink their tea, as if the three Earth Gods were invisible.

"Who here dares to touch my Bro Bei!?" Suddenly, a crowd gathered at the door, with looks of anger plastered across their faces as they marched in.
